Cyprus Property Lawyers

Buying or selling property in Cyprus is safe and rewarding when the legal work is done properly, and costly when it is not. Kleanthous & Platis is a law firm in Nicosia advising Cypriot and international clients on every stage of a property transaction: due diligence, contracts, deposit at the Land Registry, completion and transfer. We act for buyers, sellers, developers and investors across Cyprus, in English, Greek and Russian.

What Our Property Lawyers Do

We conduct full due diligence before you commit: a Land Registry search revealing the seller’s title, mortgages, memos, prohibitions and notes of unauthorised works; verification of building and planning permits; and a review of the developer’s position for new builds. We draft and negotiate reservation agreements and contracts of sale, stamp and deposit your contract with the Department of Lands and Surveys to secure specific performance protection, and complete the transfer of the title deed into your name. Where a property has no separate title deed, including auction purchases and assignments of contractual rights, we structure the acquisition to protect you.

Who We Act For

International buyers purchasing holiday homes and investments, including remote purchases completed by power of attorney; EU nationals, who need no permit to buy in Cyprus; non-EU nationals, for whom we obtain the required Council of Ministers permit; sellers who need clean, enforceable contracts and a smooth transfer; and buyers at online property auctions, where the legal pack must be reviewed before bidding.

Why Kleanthous & Platis

Our practice combines real estate with construction law, so we see problems other reviews miss: unauthorised works blocking title deeds, defects in new builds, developer insolvency risk and common expenses disputes. We give you a clear written opinion before you sign anything, and we answer within one business day.

Fees

Conveyancing fees in Cyprus are modest relative to the amounts at stake. We quote a fixed fee for standard purchases and sales before we start, so there are no surprises.
